Thanks to The State Library of New South Wales we have had an amazing travelling exhibition in the library.

Architecture and design enthusiast Tim Ross casts his unique eye across the archive of the State Library of NSW to explore ideas of home and the Australian dream of home ownership. According to Tim, “For a long time, we've been told that the Australian dream means a quarter-acre block, a Hills Hoist, and a Holden in the driveway. But that’s never been the whole story.”

“It shows how diverse our housing dreams really are — from prefab fibro houses to high-rise apartments — the Australian dream has always been more than a single cliché.” With housing affordability the topic on everyone’s minds, the exhibition suggests that some of the solutions may be found in past ideas.
